More About The Location
Known as the Switzerland of Central America, Costa Rica has an abundance of natural beauty and is populated by a friendly, well-educated people. Costa Rica has obtained the highest standard of living in Central America by embracing democracy and disbanding its army. This small country is a paradise for nature lovers with national parks, jungles, volcanoes, beaches, and more water per square mile than any other country in the world, excluding New Zealand. However, the small pre-Columbian indigenous population was wiped out by diseases brought to the new world by the conquistadors.The province of Guanacaste is renown for its breathtakingly beautiful beaches. Ranging in color from ivory white to shiny volcano black. Some are long, sweeping reaches of sand, stretching as far as the eye can see; others are secreted in windswept coves, disturbed only by pelicans or an occasional fisherman. Flamingo with its white sand beach and crystal blue water is considered the best along the Guanacaste coast. There is a North American community in the town of Flamingo itself; however, the nearby towns of Brasilito and Potrero are typical Costa Rican and this is where the homestays are located.
